PIERSON (GIVES REASONS FOR GROUP’S WAYS
List of Non-Recognized Campus Organizations Is Diminishing.
Because of many requests concerning the action of the Organization committee in regard to its refusal of recognition of many or-nmzations, Fred Pierson, chair-ma. has mack the following explanation:
“According to the constitution of He Associated Students, the Organiza-!lons committee has the power to recommend to the Legislative Council tilt any organization for just reason be refused recognition as a campus group. In the case of such action b» lig taken by the Council, as in the ease of Bachelor club, Tic-Toc, and Spinsters, the Organizations committee is compelled to enforce such a decision. Any organization which has ken refused recognition is deprived ot ill publication, social, and pledging privileges.
COMMITTEE HELPS "The fact that an organization has been refused recognition does not necessarily mean that that organization can never become recognized. The Organizations committee is compelled to stand ready to assist isuch an organization in reorganization and formulation o£ program, so that the organisation may be in a position to present more stable and constructive reasons for existence.
NO EL RODEO SPACE "Those organizations which have not presented their constitutions and current officers by the beginning of tho Christmas holidays will be barred Irom space In the El Rodeo for 1930.” The committee urges the following organisations to hand in the necessary material before Thursday, December 12, so tbat some definite action may be taken by the committee:

Scalping of football tickets will be absolutely abolished by a system which will be introduced at the Carnegie Tech football game, December 14.
Gwynn Wilson today made known the fact that all rooters’ tickets will have to be validated at a booth outside the gate of the Coliseum before admission is granted. Each ticket will be carefully checked to determine the original purchaser.
Tickets which are not held by student buyers will be confiscated. Any student, who has sold his ticket and is discovered will be blacklisted from buying tickets to any sport activity for the remainder of his years in college.
As long as the condition which now exists on the campus whereby members of the student body sell their personal tickets for sums in excess of what they paid, validation will be enforced. Although scalping university, there is a percentage of students w ho make this precaution necessary. It is for the protection of those who do not abuse their privilege that this system must be enforced.
Likewise, Gwynn Wilson has placed the same restriction upon the alumni who attempt to sell or give away their tickets. Agents are on the look-out wherever football tickets are sold to check for those which were issued but are not held by graduates.
The method of detection is by checking the number of the ticket with the number in the business offlce of the original buyer. Blacklisting results from violation of this ruling in the same way as it does with student offenders.
|| Stage Stars Will Feature Friday Rally
Benny Rubin and "Ukelele Ike” Will Furnish Entertainment For Assembly.
Entertainment will be at its height tomorrow' morning when Benny Ilubin, comedian, and “Ukulele Ike,” nationally known comic song artist, start doing their stuff in Bovard auditorium during chapel hour. The rally period this Friday will be featured ■ by the total absence of anything serious or anything in the line of what is ordinarily expected by the students at these functions.
Both of these comedians are well known to most of the S. C. student body through their appearances in support of Marion Davies In "Marianne,” and in that recent hit, “So This is College,” in which a number of Trojan grid stars appear. Rubin’s “Yankee Doodle” laugh and “little kiddies” stories are famous the world over as are the comic representations of “Ukulele Ike.”
The rally committee has aranged this assembly for the students wMth the idea in mind lo furnish some really novel entertainment to take the place of the usual exhibition of school spirit manifested at these gatherings, and choose this opportunity because of the absence of a football game this week-end, according to Sara Newman, chairman of the rally committee who is mainly responsible for securing the unusual talent for the occasion.

DR. MANGOLDTALKS TO RIVERSIDE CLUB
S. C. Sociology Professor Gives
Address On Subject Of Social
Welfare Work.
Dr. George B. Mangold of the department of sociology spoke before the Present Day club of Riverside recently on the subject of social welfare work, with particular reference to Riverside. An audience of 250 was present to hear the address, including seven persons from San Bernardino.
In his address. Dr. Mangold brought out the necessity of better co-operation between the public and private social agencies. He also insisted that the time has come in cities of Riverside's size to establish some sort of central council consisting of all the standard agencies doing so* cial work. Through such a council, successful team work in philanthropy can be achieved, overlapping can be prevented, uncovered fields can be allotted to the proper agencies, and a broader outlook on social service can be obtained, he maintained.
ORGANIZATION NEEDED
Usually a community council must presede and pave the way for a community chest. «»id the sneaker. The cities that have organized chests before they have cleared the way for flnancial co-operation by means of a council of social agencies have usually had much to undo before they found themselves on the right basis. Unless joint money-raising campaigns are founded an the right distribution of agencies they are bound to lose the auppQrt Qf tbe people.
